[QUOTE="Baird-06"]Don't buy the Xbox 360! :oSpruceCaboose

Don't buy the Xbox 360! :oBaird-06

LoL!
"Don't believe the hype — and don't buy the Xbox 360.'
'Oh, it's an amazing console, don't get us wrong. Plugged into a high-definition television set with a booming sound system, it's amazing, a wonderland of sights and music.'
'But that's the part of the problem. To get the full Xbox 360 experience, you need to spend hundreds — perhaps thousands — of dollars. All that for a machine that won't play the hot games this season, like 'Star Wars: Battlefront II' and '50 Cent: Bulletproof.'"
$399.99! Anyway, Fox news has also done stories that Sex Predators use Nintendo DSs to lure kids with Wifi texts while they are next to each other in a hallway, and that the PSP makes porn appear as if by magic. They use fear and poor understanding to fling their fecees.



Yeah man I just saw that thing about the DS and I was like what the......
Fox knows nothing bout games anyways.

[QUOTE="SpruceCaboose"][QUOTE="sdifjds"]"2. No killer games at launch It's not that we haven't generally liked what we've seen from the 360's launch titles, but there just hasn't been that one mind-blowing game that screams "next generation" and leaves the original Xbox's games in the dust. Sure, Perfect Dark Zero is impressive, and I'm personally a fan of NBA 2K6, but I think these first-gen titles will pale in comparison to Halo 3 and some other enticing games we'll see in 2006 and beyond." That sounds AWFULLY familiar. May we never forget.


    Call of Duty 2. Impossible to do on Xbox 1.

yeah? thats why they made call of duty 3?

Consoles are supposed to be consistant and long-lasting in their place. If 360 owners need to upgrade, then they don't have a choice. They will be left behind while the rich owners will be watching movies and TV shows downloaded onto their super 360s. Yes, it is a rumor, I know that. But the existance of the prototype proves the lack of total faith MS has in its current console. They are not so infallible after all if they even considered re-releasing the 360. I just wish to point that out. If the zephyer (how do you spell it?) does come out, it would seem MS is trying to merge the constant upgrades of PCs with accessable console gaming, which would not be possible. That last part is actually quite fanciful and I don't really believe that. I'm considering lots of strange possibilities.

[QUOTE="marinebro0306"]This article is from 2005.sdifjds
And half of what he said still stands true. More than anything else, I'm drawing paralells

He said you cant get one. They are now readily available. He said there were no killer games at launch; of the three systems, the 360 had the highest ratings with it's launch games by far. So the only complaints he has left are that the accessories are expensive (there are now third party accessories) and that he doesn't like the colour. That's it. Whoopdy-doo.

the thing i hate about xbox360 is the system is louder than an abominal snowman after being poked in the eye. and it had a 1 year head start but didn't take advantage and crush the competition, all we got after 1 whole stinkin' year was gears of war and no price drop.

This is also seen from aircraft carrier crews who set up the jets for takeoff. Eventually they don't notice the ear-splitting roar of the jet engines. The PS3 is stealthy like a ninja

Lol, that would be one fat Ninja. The PS3 is huge... The fact remains, you don't own a 360, so you wouldn't even know that the 360's fans are perfectly quiet...

Seriously, though, the loudness of the systems or lack therof is not an issue. Or a least it shouldn't be.

It's not the fans, geordilaforge. The dvd speed in the 360 is way, way faster than the PS3's blu-ray so it loads much quicker. This leads to the disc spinning incredibly quickly and very noisily with games which require heavy loading, like Gears. The loading time on that game are so fast, but it's loading so much at the same time - it spins like crazy.

oblivion disagrees with your post. PS3 version loads faster, due to advanced streaming technology of blu-ray disc +cell.

New systems are getting better with quieter DVD drives. So by end of 2007 you should get one quiet 360. :)

No, it loads faster because 5gb of the game are copied to the harddrive. So much for the extra harddrive space... The Blu-Ray drive in the PS3 is in fact slower than the DVD drive in the 360.

I wonder how all those PS3 gamers with the 20gb HDD are going to feel about losing 1/4 of their space.

I'm pretty sure the standard HDD on the PS3 would negate the slow Blue-ray data streaming issue

Have fun waiting on the slow Blu-Ray drive to copy 5gb of data back onto your harddrive every time that you play... It would be more than a little better to just leave it there....

Most console owners won't know how to take out the HDD and buy a new one and format it to work with the PS3. If they wanted upgrades they would have bought a PC instead. :lol:
